Thanks Tony, new functionality for TUC without me having to write any
code. Fantastic :)
In other TUC news, I've just released a new version which fixes a
problem with TUC not going above 100% with jetstream any more, and it
also logs percentage as well as raw usage to file, which people asked
for.

You can get it from the usual place, http://4g.virtual.net.nz/tuc/

If there are any problems or feature requests, let me know.
